Community involvement may be essential for conservation programme success. We focus on farmers, asking how and why they believe conservation interventions will work, or not. Here we test models of folk theories of the human motivational factors required for behaviour change, in 3 rural central Chilean communities. We hypothesize that different models will be supported by farmers with different experiences with conservation programmes, and that socioeconomic and production system variation will explain further variation in who supports each working model. We use a multiple methods approach, combining a questionnaire with participant-observation. We find support for three of the working models of human behavioural change, among different socio-economic profiles of farmers. We believe that the schema of working models provides a boundary object to facilitate communication between conservationists and stakeholders, and can help improve conservation project design and implementation.
社区参与对于保护项目的成功可能至关重要。我们专注于农民,询问他们如何以及为何相信保护干预措施会奏效,或者不会奏效。在这里,我们在智利中部 3 个农村社区中测试了人类行为改变所需的动机因素的民间理论模型。我们假设,具有不同保护计划经验的农民将支持不同的模型,而社会经济和生产系统的变化将进一步解释谁支持每个工作模型。我们采用了一种多种方法的方法,将问卷与参与式观察相结合。我们发现,在不同社会经济背景的农民中,有三种人类行为改变的工作模式得到了支持。我们相信,工作模式的方案提供了一个边界对象,有助于保护主义者和利益相关者之间的沟通,并可以帮助改善保护项目的设计和实施。
